Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of interfacial suboxide transition regions on direct tunneling in oxide and stacked oxide-nitride gate dielectrics
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of interfacial suboxide transition regions at SiO 2 interfaces on tunneling oscillations in the Fowler-Nordheim regime were investigated in the direct tunneling regime.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal gate electrodes for devices with high-k gate dielectrics: Zr/ZrO2 and Hf/HfO2 intrinsic interfacial transition regions
Gerald Lucovsky,Jerry L. Whitten +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a cluster model of the Zr/ZrO"2 interface was embedded in an electrostatic field that simulates more distant Madelung contributions, and removed unphysical solutions as well.
Electronic Structure, Amorphous Morphology and Thermal Stability of Transition Metal Oxide and Chalcogenide Alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, a chemical bonding approach is applied to non-crystalline transition metal oxides and their silicate and aluminate alloys, and new insights into the electronic structure of transition metal chalgogenide alloys are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predeposition plasma nitridation process applied to Ge substrates to passivate interfaces between crystalline-Ge substrates and Hf-based high-K dielectrics
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel processing sequence is presented for depositing HfO2 and Hf Si oxynitrides (HFSiON) onto N-passivated Ge(111) and Ge(100), and subsequently removing Ge-N interfacial bonding during 800°C thermal annealing in Ar.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxide formation and passivation for micro- and nano-electronic devices
Choelhwyi Bae,Gerald Lucovsky +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a low-temperature remote plasma-assisted oxidation process for interface formation and passivation has been extended from Si and SiC to GaN, which can be applied to nano-scale structures including quantum dots and wires, providing excellent control of ultra-thin interfacial layers which passivate the GaN substrate.
